Earbuds

"Who on earth do you think you are?"

I got bored so I checked out that spotify app thing.

And it's a freaking blessing.

I did check out the playlist and wow, I feel like I've lived under a rock for the past year and music has just now reached my ears.

I was nodding my head at my desk while doing homework when my sister came in throwing her bag on her bed.

"Can you keep a secret?" She said her words slurred.

I checked the clock, it was 9:30.

"Where the hell have you been?! Moms been worried sick."

She walked, well hobbled over. She was so drunk.

"Listen, sshhh, listen I need you, *hiccup* I need you to help me."

"You smell." I didn't know what to say, I've never had this situation before.

"Well that's not nice." She stuck her hands on her hips and then started laughing.

"You need to get to bed." I helped her under her covers and turned off the light.

"Don't tell mom." She muffled.

"Whatever." I sighed putting my phone on the charger and heading down to the basement.

I sat down and my piano.

"Haven't seen you in a while." I whispered gently tapping a C key.

I pulled out my song book and began creating chord progressions for a recent set of lyrics I wrote.

"Hey that sounds pretty sick."
My heart skipped and I looked up into our basement window.

"Who on earth do you think you are? What the hell are you doing here! It's 10 at night and your just-"

Noah hopped down putting his hand over my mouth.

"What the fùck?!" I said, my words muffled.

"Hey, you need adventure. Come follow me."

"I need sleep, you go home."

"Come on! I want to take you somewhere."

"No! Do you know me at all? I'm LeahLynn Baxter, prude, virgin, goody-two-shoes, the girl that does all of her homework. Not the girl that sneaks off in the middle of the night." I said like it was obvious, because it was.

"Alright, I just, I need a place to stay for the night I was at this party and my parents would kill me if I snuck in this late."

"And you don't think they'll be wondering where you are now?!" I said raising an eyebrow.

"I kinda told them I was at Jareds..." He said scratching the back of his head, causing his muscles to flex and my gaze to avert.

I shook my head. "No... No! I'm not letting you do this, my parents would kill me."

"They wouldn't have to know! Look I can sleep down here, then at 5 I'll leave, you can come down and check I won't be here I promise."

"What the heck no! I'm telling you, no means no, now leave!!" I said shoving him.

He turned around and placed his hand on my chin. "Come on Lee, baby, come on." He said.

"I'm not one of your teen girls No, you can't just persuade me with your looks."

"So you admit I have 'looks'? Hmm?"

"Come on No we both know how I used to feel about you." I rolled my eyes.
